April 21, 2009 was my last day as a newspaper photographer. A dear friend of mine, Ethan Hyman, shot this photo of me as I returned roughly $15,000 in photography equipment issued to me by the Raleigh News & Observer. Our equipment manager, Paul Magann, seen at right, was another one of the 31 employees who shared my fate. I was his last official duty.
I have spent my professional life making a living telling other peoples’ stories. Here is mine.
Job well done. I am sure the N&O will miss your storytelling ability, your enthusiasm for multimedia and your NCPOY credentials.
ReplyDeleteIt's readers will miss your imagery more.
I saw the first 4 blog posts and think Mere Exposure will be a splendid photo endeavor.
Thanks Kevin! We need to kick it soon!
